People feel that because they are meditating they have to be doing something. Actually meditating means that you are doing nothing.

like stars,  mists and candle flames,  mirages,  dew drops and water bubbles, like dreams,  lightening and clouds. In that way I will view all composite phenomena.

"When I recognize - recognize - that within me is silence.

And this silence is not silent.

That when I become completely still, that I am not still.

That when I remove all these barriers that are in front of me

that I can then begin to feel my freedom.

Freedom that is within you.

Understanding that is within you.

Love that is within you.

A feeling that is within you.

A feeling that is so yours that nobody can take it away.

A joy that is inherent to every single human being on the face of earth.

No matter who they are.

A grace that has touched all of us.

Divinity that resides in each one of our hearts.

No temples have to be created for this divinity.

This divinity cannot live in a temple.

This divinity insists to live in the heart of all human beings.

And that's what Knowledge is.."                  - Maharaji  2011

Vina Von Bliss The ancient Masters didn't try to educate the people, but kindly taught them to not-know. When they think that they know the answers, people are difficult to guide. When they know that they don’t know, people can find their own way. If you want to learn how to govern, avoid being clever or rich. The simplest pattern is the clearest. Content with an ordinary life, you can show all people the way back to their own true nature.

Every soul needs to withdraw from the world from time to time to find that peace which passes understanding. Every soul needs to be stabilized, and it can come about only in peace and stillness. Once that inner stability has been established, you can go anywhere and do anything without the outer chaos and confusion affecting you in anyway. It is going into the secret place of the Most High. It is finding your oneness with Me, which enables you to go on when you feel you have come to the end of your tether and cannot go a step further. It is those steps taken into the unknown, in faith, in My strength, which work wonders and which change lives. It is those steps which enable the impossible to become possible and bring down My kingdom on earth, that glorious new heaven and new earth. Move always towards this end. Change and change quickly when change is needed. I AM with you always. Draw upon Me.

As an IndoPagan, I meditate every day. I have also led meditation groups and plan to get another one started soon as I can. I am currently staying with my daughter and will get my own place in March, then I'll be free to practice in the open.

'Regard as one this life, the next life and the life in between. All worldly pursuits have one unavoidable and inevitable end, which is sorrow:  acquisitions end in dispersal:  buildings in destruction: meetings in separation: births in death.. Knowing this one should from the very first renounce acquisitions and heaping up and building and meeting and set about realising  the Truth.   Life is short so apply yourself to meditation.'   

  Milarepa  13th Cent.
